Down the Drain

Roto-Rooter says they have found all of the following while unclogging drains:

Broom handles, doorknobs, garden hoses, bungee cords, a hummingbird feeder, a glass eye, gold teeth, dentures, contact lenses, toothbrushes, hearing aids, toupees, lingerie, long johns, towels, robes, socks, TV remotes, pagers, an alarm clock, Timex watch that took a licking and kept on ticking, a Rolex watch that took a licking and died, a billiard ball, golf balls, a shrimp net, a tear gas canister, birds, bats, beavers, cats, fish, ducks, frogs, possums, skunks, a piranha, a six-foot rattlesnake, $400 in coins, $58 in change in a laundromat pipe, canceled checks, a $4000 diamond, $50,000 in cash, a Cornish game hen and a six-pack of Budweiser.

There's never a dull moment in the plumbing business.

My brother once shoved an apple core down the toilet ... at night ... on a holiday weekend ... while premium plumbing rates applied. My parents were NOT happy. :)
